Every time you win a match, you seem to only gain 280 crowns from a match. Nothing less, nothing more.

This seems like the norm for a team winning, however you don't really make much of a profit, if any at all.

Being that the cost to enter is 200 crowns, you're fighting random people, and have no idea if they'll help in your aid of winning against the opposing team, assuming you're still a good/bad player that is. You essentially have no idea if you'll win.

Lets say if you play a total of three games:
You spend 600 crowns total.
You win a total of two games.
You lost a total of one game.
You win 280 crowns from each match you won.
You gain 560 crowns in return.
A net loss of 40 crowns.

Now, I know I shouldn't make a big deal about this, being 40 crowns, but it seems like there's no way to make a decent profit, unless you win every single match successfully, which seems to not be likely.

I'm sure at least a few of you (from testing) have noticed the crown payouts from team matches, whether it be from Blast Network games or Lockdown games. I'd like to enjoy the many battles I have against other Knights, and with this looming over my head, I'm not enjoying it particularly. Essentially, I'd like to make a significant [crown] gain so I can keep on playing again and again, and be able to purchase various goods without hesitation.

I'm certain you guys would agree with me on this, yes?

crown sink

As far as I know the blast network is intended to be a crown sink, put in more then you get out. So increasing the profit would negate that point.

To be fair in FFA blast

To be fair in FFA blast network you get more crowns. Here the crowns are split amongst teammates. You'll notice in Guild V Guild blast network, you get this same 280 prize.

Like said above, its a bit of a crown sink, what you do gain is krogmo coins, and its fun. And if you win you can play as many times as you want, winning 4 times gives you 1 1/3 games worth of crowns on top of your initial 200.

Without the FFA aspect in this game I see this being a big Guild V Guild pvp game. Cause success is gonna be based on how good your team is.

Don't forget that you get

Don't forget that you get krogmo coins. You may think they're worthless, but give me 75 coins and I can sell some mod cals for a decent profit. If you play 75 times.. and you win almost half.. 37 x 280 = 10360 if I lose 38 times, 38 x 200 = 7600. Profit of 2760. Total coins: 112 (If you get no bribes or boosters). Seems pretty fair if you can sell a mod cal at 15-25k. Takes a lot of grinding, but Lockdown is pretty fun.
